Forest Live, the summer concert series presented by Forestry England, has announced that BRIT Award-winning singer-songwriter Daniel Bedingfield will support Olly Murs at Cannock Chase Forest on 29 June 2024.

Celebrating the 20th anniversary of his debut album, this year will see Daniel Bedingfield performing live in the UK for the first time since 2005.

Bedingfield first burst onto the scene in the early noughties with a string of hits including breakout single “Gotta Get Thru This” and follow-ups “If You’re Not The One” and “Never Gonna Leave Your Side”. His best-selling debut album peaked at Number 2 in the UK Albums Chart and has since sold over 4 million copies worldwide.

Daniel Bedingfield and Olly Murs join a wide-ranging line-up for this year’s Forest Live concert series.

Cannock Chase Forest will also stage performances from popstar Anne-Marie on 27 June and a co-headline show from indie icons The Charlatans and Johnny Marr on 28 June.

Forestry England uses the money Forest Live raises to maintain beautiful natural areas for everyone to enjoy, run important conservation projects and keep growing trees. Last year they planted some 7.4 million trees, caring for the nation’s 1,500 woods and forests sustainably and welcoming 291 million visits in 2022-23. Everyone in England lives within a one-hour drive of one of the nation’s forests. Over two million people have enjoyed the Forest Live gigs over the last twenty-three years.
